Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 234 Rushing supplies and destroying the railway

After the Japanese troops at Fengle Station were wiped out, Zhou Weihan and Xing Zhiguo walked out from the rear headquarters and walked quickly to Fengle Station.

Soldiers of the three regiments who died and fell to the ground along the way abound. At a glance, the number of soldiers killed by the three regiments alone is no less than 200, and there are hundreds of militiamen among them. This is still under the suppression of artillery battalion firepower.

Zhou Weihan's face was heavy. The soldiers of the third regiment braved the powerful firepower of the Japanese army to charge several times, which is not to say that they were not brave.

"Such a small Fengle station has sacrificed so many soldiers, it is even more difficult than Heshun County!" Zhou Weihan said in a deep voice.

"This is normal. The Japanese army extended to the surrounding counties on the basis of railways. The station is its basic base. Of course, it is more important than an ordinary county! This is our independent detachment, and the battle loss ratio of the Japanese army has reached 1:1. It's still okay to fight the tough battle like this, but if it's replaced by other regiments of our Eighth Route Army, it might have to lose my wife and lose the army!" Xing Zhiguo analyzed.

Zhou Weihan understood this point, but he felt uncomfortable after sacrificing such a soldier.

Then Zhou Weihan asked the monk to call over several key officials, and Wu Qin, Wang Lin, Chen Feng, Zhu Dashan, and Dong Jiang arrived one after another.

"Fengle station has been taken down, Wu Qin, you commanded well this time, and the soldiers of the third regiment are also very brave!" Zhou Weihan changed his expression, with a smile on his face, expressing his full appreciation for the battle of the third regiment affim.

As a commander, no matter what happens, you must first stabilize yourself, and then drive the emotions of the people below, not to mention that winning the station is a victory.

"Detachment leader, chief of staff, the casualties have just been counted. This time, our three regiments suffered 262 casualties. The Japanese army stored a lot of bullets and explosives used by the Japanese and puppet troops in the station, as well as a small amount of unpacked firearms. One generator, four trucks!" Wu Qinhui reported.

"Well, very good. At present, the first step of the offensive plan has been completed, and the second regiment is estimated to have pulled out the nearby strongholds. Now we can proceed to the next step!"

"Chief of Staff, you cooperate with the local comrades to organize personnel to extend to the north and south sides of Fengle Station and demolish the railway!"

"Wang Lin, you lead a group of young and strong people to scramble to transport the supplies and wounded in the station, transport them to the predetermined location in the west of Ci County and hide them first, and let the soldiers of the third regiment consume the ammunition first before transporting the supplies in the station!" Zhou Weihan faced the three Wang Lin, the political commissar of the regiment, said.

"It's less than ten o'clock in the evening. The first regiment should have handed over the reinforcements of the Japanese army. The third regiment and the artillery battalion will continue to destroy the strongholds along the railway line to the north. Don't attack the strongholds all at once. Set aside some troops and set up a blocking position. , the reinforcements of the Japanese army may not come out of nowhere!"

Zhou Weihan made detailed arrangements for the troops participating in the battle, but did not mention the cavalry battalion.

Zhu Dashan couldn't help it, and said: "Detachment leader, we can't always use our cavalry as signal soldiers. The cavalry rides horses and runs fast. You know how hard our cavalry battalion usually trains. You deploy it like this. , I can’t explain to the soldiers!”

"The cavalry battalion is the only mobile force at present. It is used as a reserve force, so it can still fight without a turn?" Xing Zhiguo said.

"What's the matter, Zhu Dashan, do you still want to use my precious cavalry to fight the little devil's gun tower?" Zhou Weihan glared at Zhu Dashan.

After hearing this, Zhu Dashan gave a shy smile and didn't dare to say more.

"The cavalry company set aside a platoon to continue reconnaissance around Fengle Station. The main force and the reconnaissance company went north with the headquarters. Is the combat mission of each department clear?" Zhou Weihan finally said.

"Understood!" Everyone replied in unison, and then dispersed to gather their troops.

But Xing Zhiguo didn't leave, and said, "Detachment Captain, our Eighth Route Army is making such a big noise right now, the Japanese army"

"Chief of Staff, do you want to talk about the Japanese army's next revenge?"

"That's right! It's good that it's night, but the Japanese army might take action in the daytime!" Xing Zhiguo said worriedly.

"Old Xing, you are right in one point. We made a lot of noise. The Japanese First Army has a lot of troops, but the occupied area is also large. Now there are fires everywhere. Yoshio Shinozuka's headache is how to free up troops. , where to fight the fire!"

"If the Fourth Regiment can knock down the Changzhi Airport, there will be no harassment from Japanese planes, and we will have no worries when we operate during the day!"

"There is one thing that should be considered. There are three divisions of the Japanese Army in Zhongtiao Mountain in southern Shanxi. The Eighth Route Army on the southern front is under great pressure. Nan, these three days are enough for us!" Zhou Weihan said slowly.

As for the Japanese troops in Xingtai and Handan, Zhou Weihan didn't pay attention to them at all. If there were enough troops, Zhou Weihan even considered whether to attack Handan.

There were no Japanese military activities south of Fengle Station, and the railway bridge, the Japanese reinforcement channel south of Zhanghe River, had been blown up by Xu Dali's second regiment. The independent detachment had no worries and could concentrate on extending northward.

With Fengle Station as the boundary, along the railway stretching [-] to [-] miles from north to south, countless militiamen and young adults are destroying the railway.

At that time, when the combat meeting was held in Yanwang Mountain, Wang Ying, the director of the Tainan Special District, had already mobilized 1800 militiamen and 3000 young and strong.

Not long after taking down Fengle Station, Zhao Gang cooperated with local comrades to mobilize many fellow villagers to come here one after another.

Three or five people form a group, some push carts, and the family conditions are better, pack horses, mules, donkeys, old cows, all available animal power is used.

The militiamen and villagers, carrying shovels and wrenches, joined in the battle to dismantle and destroy the railway.

At first, the militiamen who didn't get the hang of it only knew how to unscrew the spikes and splints with a wrench, pick up the rails piece by piece, and remove the sleepers one by one.

Later, the militiamen who worked harder and became more experienced found a better way. Dozens of people stood in a row, worked together, shouted chant, hollowed out the paving stones under the sleepers, and dozens of people lifted the sleepers together At one end, the tens of meters long rails were turned upside down, and the spikes, splints and sleepers completely collapsed under the strong force.Then, the militiamen were using shovels and pickaxes to dig up the potholes on the roadbed.

Zhou Weihan looked around and saw a continuous convoy of scooters, and all the pulled out rails and sleepers were pulled away.

Zhou Weihan couldn't help sighing that our party's mobilization ability at the grassroots level is so strong that the Japanese army has fallen into the vast ocean of the people.

With the leadership of our party and the support of the people, how can the little devil be undefeated!

"I don't understand, why is there no movement in Ci County?" said the monk standing aside.

"Do you think there is any movement on it? The surrounding strongholds were almost destroyed by the Second Regiment. Coming out with the strength of the Japanese army in the county is tantamount to death. The little devil is not a fool. If he comes out with his front foot, the county seat with his back foot will be lost. In the county town, at least a dog’s life can be saved!” Zhou Weihan said with a smile.
